WHO SURRENDERED THI
SECURITY
THE

In exposing the breach of faith com
mitted against the public, in the sur
render Of the $aoo,ooo bonds held as
security in the treasury for Spreckels
Bank, this paper held the Government
responsible for the transaction. The
Government was challenged to explain
its position in the matter, but SO Tar
has failed to make public an reason
for its conduct. Enquire have, how
ever, elected the fact Il embers OF
the Government have 10 defense to
offer. They ST y attempt to
palliate the ofense by laying the
blame upon a Government official.
Messrs. Claus Spreckels & Co made a
formal request OF the Government in
writing for the surrender Of the security
The Minister of Finance, Mr.. Kanoa,
submitted the request to the Attorney
General, Mr.. Rosa, for the lstters
opinion. While the matter was under
adyisement Of the Attorney-Genera,
the bonds were handed over to Messrs.
Spreckels & Co. by Mr.. Pratt, Regis
trar of Public Accounts. without wait
ing for orders from the Finance
Minister.
That such liberty should be taken
with ihpunity by servant OF the Gov
eminent shows to what deplorable
pitch the affairs OF the Kingdom have
been brought during the years that
they have been manipulated with the
objects, chiefly, Of advancing the inter
ests of single business house and
retaining hold of Office by single poll
tician, who made common cause with
that house just SO long as he saw his
own selfish purposes bound up with it.
Indeed, that politician, who is the Pre-
mier of the Kingdom, is not yet clear
of the suspicion Of hunting with the
hounds while running with the hare
Many people who are indignan; at the
gross betrayal of public confidence, in
the surrender of the security in qnes
ton. refuse to believe that the Regis
trar would have given up the bonds
90
without the connivance OF Mr.. Gibson
This is not said at random, as a shot
at a venture for the Prime Ministers
armor, but IS an actual expression Of
influential public opinion, including
present customers Of Spreckels' Bank,
AS public man Mr.. Gibson is bound
to clear himself of reflections upon his
official conduct or rest under whatever
aspersion they may convey. Being the
recognized leader of the Government
it is for him to explain the transaction
in question to the public, either clear
ing or condemning the official in charge
of the treasury.
Mr.. Kanoa, Minister OF Finance
IS not to be too speedily relieved
from blame in this matter. He
seems at the outset, when the re
quest for the surrender Of the bonds
was made, to have been guided by pru
dent regard for his responsibility to the
public, in submitting the matter to the
legal adviser of the Grown, Yet, when
finding the security given up behind
his back, and blame being cast upor
him publicly for allowing it to be car
ried of, he failed in his duty to both
the public and himself by resting
quietly under the indignity done to his
Office, OF the INSTRUMENTATION practlsed
toward him BY an officer seryingin his
Department, without manifestlng due
resentment at being overridden IN the

A NEW LEASE OF LIFE.

When one has been suffering the agonies
Of sew ere attack of rheumatism. neural
! gia or seiatica, and relief comes, it seems as
| if a new lease Of life had been granted
! Such have been the feelings of thousands
who, after trying physicians and number
less remedies have used Athlephoros and
found to their great joy that this medicine
really did cure these diseases.
| At Dubuque, Ia, the druggists say Ath-
| lophoros beats them ALL We thought it
would be like many other rheumatic medi-
cines that have been put on the market.
! sell for while, then gradually sink out of
| our memory. But such is not the case with
! Atlophoros; instead of our sales dimin-
ishing they increase. and what makes us
have more faith in its future mission is
| that our customers come back and praise its
| good work in the highest terms. Said one
druggist to the writer: ''AIy confidence is
| so great in AthlophorOS that often sell a
| bottle with the understanding that if it is
| not satisfactory l will refund the money.
l have never yet had to pay the money
back" Mrs. G. j. Alabeck, 1867 CLAY
street. Dubuque, Ia. says: II was sub
| ject to frequent attacks of inflammatory
rheumatism. and have been nearly all nv
life; at times / would be almost HELPLESS.
When l commenced with the Athlophoros
was carrying my arm III Sing. 1 could
not move my fingers without causing me
pain. One evening while suffering this
way I heard of AthlophoroS. Ths next
day sent for bottle. l was a little
afraid of it at first on account of the buzz
zing sensation it caused in my head, but it
worked like a charm. the swelling and the
pain were gone, my rheumatism was well.
1t is now a year and a half and 1 have not
suffered any since"
Every druggist should keep Athlophoros
and Athlophoros Pills. but where they can
not be bought of the druggist the Athlopho-
ros company, 112 Wall street. New York,
will send either Carriage paidD on receipt
of regular price. which is 81 per bottle for
AthlophorOs and 80 cents for Pills

the plaintiff was sad enc, and in substance
was as follows: Mr.. and Mrs. Brooks were
married in New York Feb. ), 1862, when
Mrs. Brooks was II years of age and Mr..
Brooks 10. 1t was q sort of love -at-tirSt-
sight case, and as MI. Brooks had no
property and no trade married life was not
as pleasant as it might have been under
different circumstances. Some time ago the
couple came to Minneapolis, where they
have since resided. Here Mr.. Brooks be-
gan a course Of cruel and inhuman treat
ment, and frequently called her vile names
i'll the presence OF her child, and said he
had often lived with better and handsomer
women. He openly boosted of his con-
quests with other women, and kept
his wife in constant worry In
February, 1886, Brooks became the agent
for book publishing house in this

Very Peculiar Actions.

Harriet Libby filed in the district court
yesterday papers beginning an action for
divorce from Mark Libby, to whom she
was married in Minneapolis in 1878. He
is 20 years Of age and she 2S and they have
two children. In her complaint Mrs. Libby
alleges that within the last two years her
husband has become greatly addicted to the
Use OF intoxicating liquors, and frequently
came home il q beaStly state of intoXicati0n.
When in this condition, Mrs. Libby says
he would treat her in vile and inhuman
manner and Use vile language toward her
in the presence of her children. These acts
of unkindnesS she fOrgaYe on account of
the little ones, but now she says that pa
tience has ceased to be a virtue She
charges that NOV. IS, 1885, her husband
came home greatly under the influence Of
liquor and began to make improper adj
vances to girl named Eddy Eden, who
was staying at the house. Upon his wife's
protesting he pushed her aside, threw the
Eden girl down and attempted
10 assault her. Mrs. Libby
also charges that when drunk
her husband would go TO the houses of i'll
fame on First street and remain there for
days at time. According to the COM
plant Libby deserted his wife and children
Jan. l, 1856, and has since failed to pro-
vide for them. Mrs. Libby wants the
custody of the children and the right to sell
certain real estate without the signature Of
